Many, many years after most music fans tossed their tapes in the trash, the Lethbridge, Alta., musician got behind the dated format in a big way — by forming an independent record label intent on resurrecting the once-loved cassette.

The Ministry of Canadian Heritage has finished consulting anyone who wants to express an opinion about its ongoing cultural policy review, and the web page for the report begins with a slide that offers this optimistic comment from one Pollyanna on the Canadian cultural scene, she writes, citing from the doc that “The strongest creators will generate content that stands out and gets noticed. The government can let the audience discover it on its own. If we make it, they will come.”

So, speaking of the American Congress, #45 is due to address it tonight: up the wars, fuck the ecology, etc.; then, Colbert will be on live afterward (so said the Colbert, meaning on that late show of his, I guess).

Is that the show he is rapidly turning into the guest host for when Jon Stewart is busy?

Hello.

I would like to know if an HMV here will be one of the 70.

I still have my cassette tapes from the 80s, I can’t see me getting back into those.

That was a pretty good video up there. Maybe not quite as catchy as the one frankus and loweeda reminded me of the other day.
